00:00Hello, it was another fine day of weather across the UK on Friday, with lots of sunshine.

00:05And that fine dry and settled weather looks set to continue throughout this weekend and

00:09into next week. Here's the reason why. High pressure, this is what's affected our weather

00:12throughout this working week, and it's not going anywhere fast. It continues to affect

00:16us throughout this weekend into the early part of next week as well. So lots more sunshine

00:20to come, some cloud at times towards the east coast, but no real signs just yet of any notable

00:25rainfall.

00:27Back to Friday evening and overnight, then we end the working week on a fine note, dry

00:31for all areas, lots of late sunshine, typically across central and western parts. But through

00:35the night, we'll see some low cloud developing across parts of England, Wales and Scotland,

00:40and one or two mist and fog patches developing as well. But under those clear skies, it will

00:43turn fairly chilly, temperatures widely falling into single figures. In some rural spots,

00:47particularly across northern England, we could see temperatures falling fairly close to freezing,

00:51so a cold end to the night here. But we do get off to another dry start on Saturday morning.

00:56Lots of sunshine from the word go for many areas, much of that cloud will lift up and

00:59break and that will mean by the afternoon it's a fine picture across the board with

01:03lots of sunshine to come. A bit of patchy cloud possible across some southeastern areas

01:07and across the far north of Scotland, here we see some thicker cloud as well. And here

01:10will be quite cool, just 13 degrees there for Orkney and Shetland. But elsewhere, if

01:15anything, a warmer day compared to Friday, so temperatures widely reaching 20 to 23 degrees,

01:20although once again, a little bit cooler towards that North Sea coast. As we head through the

01:25rest of Saturday into the evening and overnight, then it's more of the same way. We end Saturday

01:28on a dry note, lots of late sunshine once again. We will again see one or two mist and

01:33fog patches, but through the night we see thick clouds spreading across much of northeast

01:36Scotland and eastern and central parts of England as well. Now here, temperatures will

01:41be quite slow, but generally it's another fairly cool night, temperatures once again

01:45falling into single figures. So we get off to a bit of an east west split to the day

01:49on Sunday. Quite a lot of cloud first thing across eastern Scotland, eastern England as

01:53well. But sunshine from the word go further towards the west. Any cloud should lift and

01:58break as we head through Sunday. So by the afternoon is a fine picture for the vast majority.

02:02Lots of sunshine to come, a bit of patchy cloud at times across Scotland and Northern

02:06Ireland. And once again, down that North Sea coast, we could see a bit of mistiness and

02:10thicker cloud at times. But as I said, for the vast majority, it's fine, dry, sunny and

02:14warm. Even across western Scotland and Northern Ireland, we can see highs of 21 or 22. Again,

02:19England and Wales could see 22 or 23 degrees. So again, in that sunshine, it will feel warm.

02:25So as I said, it's a fine weekend of weather to come across the UK. Once again, if you

02:28want more detail, you can always follow us on social media and I'll see you again soon.
